Gate released the February Private Wealth Management Report: BTC retraced by 15%, multi-strategy products maintained stable returns

According to the latest "February 2026 Private Wealth Management Monthly Report" released by Gate, the cryptocurrency market faced overall pressure in February due to macroeconomic and geopolitical factors, with BTC experiencing a monthly decline of approximately 15.5%, and ETH also retracing. The market's fear and greed index dropped into the "extreme fear" zone, indicating a significant increase in risk-averse sentiment.Against this backdrop, Gate's private wealth management products maintained overall steady performance, but short-term returns showed some differentiation. Among them, Star Core Smart Investment (USDT) had the highest annual return rate, reaching 9.5%; Starry Hedge (USDT) and Star Orbit Arbitrage (USDT) had cumulative return rates of 18.0% and 17.2%, respectively. During the statistical period, Starry Hedge (USDT) achieved positive returns in all 20 cycles, with a total win rate of 100%; Gravitational Hedge (USDT) also performed outstandingly, with a total win rate of 95%.The report pointed out that recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and rising shipping risks have heightened market concerns about disruptions in crude oil supply, driving a rebound in WTI oil prices. Looking ahead, the narratives related to AI Agents and TradFi may continue to attract market attention in the next 1-2 months and become important catalysts for capital rotation.

SignalPlus Head: The intensification of multi-strategy hedge fund trading has triggered recent BTC sell-offs, but the market still holds a buy-the-dip sentiment

ChainCatcher news, according to an analysis by SignalPlus head Augustine Fan, the recent sell-off of Bitcoin has been primarily triggered by multi-strategy hedge fund trading that dominates the macro market. These multi-strategy trades include arbitrage, long-short positions, and leveraged operations, aiming to maximize returns across asset classes.In the Bitcoin market, a common multi-strategy trading method is basis trading, which involves buying spot Bitcoin (usually through ETFs) and shorting Bitcoin futures to profit from the price difference. However, when the price difference narrows or the market changes, the profits from basis trading decline, leading to capital exiting positions and concentrated sell-offs of Bitcoin and ETF shares. Fan pointed out that this liquidation pressure has amplified the sell-off over the past week, especially against the backdrop of increased volatility related to tariffs.Nevertheless, the "buying the dip" sentiment still exists in the market. Fan stated that the valuations of stocks outside the major indices remain relatively stable compared to historical averages, and hard economic data may outperform the rapid deterioration of soft data. Therefore, the market generally believes that it is still a "buying the dip" market, expecting to gradually digest the impacts of tariff volatility.
